In this brief advisory video, the speaker highlights a common mistake agencies make when trying to grow: focusing solely on delivering results. He argues that without building genuine relationships, demonstrating care for the client’s organization, and aligning work with the client’s goals, agencies will experience high churn even if their work is excellent. The speaker identifies perceived indifference as the number‑one reason clients leave and urges agencies to balance result delivery with relationship cultivation and a world‑class client experience.

I think that some of the big mistakes I see agencies make when it comes to growing their agency, specifically around retention, is they think it's just about the result. The reality though is if you don't create a relationship with that client, if you don't show that you care about their organization and connect what you're doing to their goals and to their outcomes, you're gonna have high churn even if you do great work. The number one reason a client will leave is perceived indifference. And so make sure you're just as focused on delivering the results as you are on creating relationships and a world-class experience.
